		<description><![CDATA[Hi doug 

it was really nice to read your suggestions on taking JLPT.

I am KK from India and was studying japanese few years back ... 

I did an intensive course in Japanese for 1 yr which was a full time course. It was suppose to be equivalent to san Kyuu.

However I never appeared for JLPT after that as i started working and i didnt have much time. Now after 4 years i have landed here in japan working for a jap company. 

I am preparing again for taking on the JLPT examination. Even though the complete set up around me is in japanese (japanaese colleagues/ movies / programs / operating system to mails)... i do have only few months to prepare. I believe i will take help of some tutor also but I am not sure which level to appear for as I think lot many things have changed now from past JLPT level. 

could you please suggest which level to prepare for now ....keeeping a time limit in consideration which is only 3 months now .... 

Your suggestion will be highly appreciated. 

Regards

KK]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hello,

No, I took the N3 this year (see related posts in blog), so I have experience with the N2 and can&#039;t offer help.

In general if you want to improve reading comprehension, you need to read Japanese media: comics, books, websites and so on.  It&#039;s the only way.  Find a topic that interests you and just start reading.

Good luck!]]></description>

Did you appear for N2 level on dec 2010 or you are planning it in July 2011. I am also appearing for N2 in July2011. It would be great if you can share some information and links for improving score in reading comprehension. I just scored 60% in dokkai in N3.]]></description>
